We just did a 8days/7nights Myanmar trip with One Stop Travel & Private Day Tours. Their rates were very good and helped us to save more than 50% of the cost as compared to visiting Myanmar through a Singapore Travel agency. All four of us had a great time as we were able to customise the trips to suit my daughter (who is particular about tasting myanmar food), my 80-year-old mum (who needs more rest/stops) my husband and I who are avid photographers. Linn at "One Stop Travel & Private Days Tour" was so patient with me, he went through many rounds of email discussion with me, recommending and helping me to finalise the itinerary before the trip. After we finalised and confirmed the tour, I was surprised that we did not have to pay a deposit and paid only on arrival.
There were many options and we went for the option that provided guides (guided tours) & drivers and full internal transportation (domestic flights, cars-MPV trips and boat trips). Meals and accommodations were excluded as I prefered the flexibility of picking our restaurants and lodging. Everything went well and smooth! The guides were helpful, attentive and informative, the drivers were very patient and helpful too.

We booked an 8 day tour of Myanmar through Hannah (Hmwe Hmwe) who was excellent throughout the whole process, answering all my emails and queries beforehand.
She met us on arrival and had arranged our hotel room to be decorated (Tawin Garden Hotel) and provided a cake as well as a gift as it was my wife's birthday. A lovely personal touch.
We have travelled to 15 countries where we have arranged tours with a local guide/company directly, and this was one of the best with meticulous detail in its planning. All information about the tour, hotel voucher and flight tickets were given to me on arrival along with a summary of travel, flights and check in times etc.
Our guides and drivers were excellent, always very attentive, knowledgeable and willing to help and please. Htet and Lin were particularly helpful and caring when my daughter had a medical issue - going beyond expectation to get what we needed.
We also saved 30% by booking our balloon flight through One Stop instead of directly with the balloon operator.
I would definitely recommend One Stop Tours.

Our trip through Myanmar was amazing. I corresponded with Linn, the organizer at One Stop Travel, for six months before the trip and we fine tuned the visit to suit us. After our ten day tour, he arranged our flights to Ngapali beach and back to Yangon even though it wasn’t part of the tour package.
At each destination we were met by a local guide who escorted us throughout the area, returned us to the airport and checked us into our flight to the next destination.
We saw a lot of pagodas—a lot, but we also visited a lot of craft shops. We saw silk weaving, lotus flower thread harvest, silver workshops, parasol production, paper making, cigarette production, marble sculptors, long-boat building, floating farms, one-leg fishermen, sunsets from various boats, balloons over Bagan, monastery rituals, monastery school for young girls, a parade for young monk noviats (like four years old), community dinners celebrating said noviats and so much more!
We were only two people for this tour, but every van ride, every boat ride, every guide was only for the two of us. The price was excellent and the accommodations were wonderful as well.
Our guides were quite knowledgeable and all working hard on improving their English. They had a great sense of humor and were more than willing to answer any questions we had about the country and the society. We were told by one of the guides that One Stop Travel contributes a significant amount to local environmental and educational causes, and inspired by that, our guide also volunteered his time off-season, to provide impoverished rural schools with needed supplies.
We felt completely safe throughout the tour. Because of the Corona virus, many people at the major airports wore face masks, but once within Myanmar, we saw very few. And really, driving to the airport in your car poses far more risk to your life than this virus does! Enjoy your visit, you can’t go wrong with One Stop Travel!

My wife and I have travelled extensively around the world for several decades now. We plan our own itineraries, travel alone and avoid organised tour groups. However when we decided to visit Myanmar we had very little time to make our own arrangements and contacted One Stop Travel instead with our requirements. We couldn't have been more impressed with the company's services, which included making the necessary hotel and domestic airline reservations, and providing us with impressively knowledgeable English-speaking guides. Our three-week trip to Myanmar would not have been nearly as satisfying and informative without One Stop's assistance.

We had a fantastic day touring Yangon with our driver and our guide Kyaw Kyaw Soe. He took us to all of the places we wanted to see plus a few extra as well. He timed things perfectly to cope with the heat of the day and took us to a great place for lunch. Kyaw Kyaw Soe was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and spoke very good English. I would highly recommend this service. Ask for Kyaw Kyaw he was great.

We wanted to travel around Myanmar for 4 weeks, but didn't want to spend too much time arranging everything on the spot. A few months in advance, we made our wishes, requirements and a possible route known to OneStop. Our contact person was Hannah. Service by this young lady with a capital "S". Thinking along in the preliminary phase, making additions, identifying bottlenecks and proposing alternatives to ultimately arrive at a reasonably detailed and optimal travel plan for us. Perfect!! During the trip everything went smoothly and as agreed. Taxis, boats, guides, tickets, e-scooters, excursions, etc., etc., all arranged to perfection. In the entire range of activities during these 4 weeks, there were only 2 (almost negligible) misunderstandings that were quickly resolved with a phone call. Even a spontaneously canceled domestic flight was taken into account by Hannah, which caused us minimal inconvenience. Of course we had some skepticism in advance, but thanks to the OneStop Services we were able to travel through Myanmar for 4 weeks in an optimal, carefree and relaxed way.

Travelled to Yangon and Bagan with family members. Our guide in Yangon, Spring, was friendly and had lots of good suggestions and recommendations. He was entertaining, personable and informative. Linn in Bagan was very polite and informative. He brought the history of Bagan alive. Both guides were very professional and passionate, which made for a very educational and positive experience.

My husband and I took the 8 day Myanmar Private Tour. From the moment Spring picked us up at the airport we knew we were in good hands. Everything was perfectly planned and went very smoothly. We never would have been able to see everything that we saw in 8 days if we were on our own.
Spring really got to know what we liked and customized our activities for us. Spring taught us so much about the history and culture of Myanmar. All of the flights went smoothly. The lodging was good and the food was excellent.

One Stop Travel and Private Day Tours played an integral 8 days of our 21 day tour of the Southeast Asian countries of Myanmar, Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. With the assistance of One Stop Travel and its professional staff, my family and I were able to coordinate a wonderful 8 day tour of the Myanmar cities of Yangon, Bagan, Inle Lake and Mandalay.
In the planning stages of our trip to Myanmar, Ms Eaint from One Stop Travel was incredibly helpful. Her collaborative work with my wife, Tracy, made the coordination of multiple domestic (internal) flights within Myanmar, hotel accomodations and tour excursions less daunting. One Stop Travel says and does it all. Despite an 11.5 hour time difference with US Eastern Standard Time, Ms Eaint did not fail to respond to inquiries within 24 hours.
Wishing to upgrade our hotel accomodations, One Stop Travel was able to obtain a much more favorable room rate than we would have been able to obtain on our own for our desired hotels. In fact, my wife and I calculated that the cost alone of the hotel accomodations would have been more than the combined cost of the same hotels booked by One Stop and all of the guided tours. This is something to keep in mind should you wish to reserve 5 star hotels on your own. One Stop with its relationship to these hotels may afford you a better rate.
After a nearly 20 hour flight from the United States to Myanmar, our guide, Sonny, and driver, Sai, met and greeted us at the Yangon Airport. Ms. Eaint thoughtfully met us in person at our Sule Shangri- La Hotel to review with us our travel itineraries and dispensed our hotel vouchers, domestic plane and excursion tickets. It was at this point that full cash payment for their services was accepted. No previous down payments were required for their services.
All the courteous, knowledgeable tour guides employed by One Stop were fluent in English. Clean and well maintained Toyota vans were waiting to drive us to and from all the various airports within Myanmar, in addition to the tourist sites. Skilled drivers safely navigated the congested roads of Yangon and Mandalay and the bumpy, dirt roads of Bagan. One Stop employs a representative to assist and facilitate the immigration process for its clients at Heho Airport. Throughout our tour of Myanmar, a One Stop representative would always keep in touch with our local tour guides to ensure our comfort and satisfaction.
One Stop was also very efficient and responsive to unexpected issues. Due to inclement weather conditions, our hot air balloon excursion in Bagan was cancelled. By the time we arrived the following day in Mandalay, our Mandalay tour guide had given us our full cash refund for the excursion.
My family and I would like to specially acknowledge Ms Htet Htet, our guide, and Mr. Zo, our driver, in Mandalay.
Ms Htet Htet was very thoughtful and attentive. The rainy weather conditions in Mandalay made walking a challenge at times in the temples. However, she was ever present to lend a helping hand to my mother-in-law. Her "facilitating" things for us to make our tour more comfortable and efficient did not go unnoticed. With her advanced degrees in archaeology, she was a wealth of historical knowledge. She was also a wealth of knowledge as it pertained to the best Mandalay restaurants and dishes. Per her recommendation, we tried Ko's Kitchen and Golden Duck in Mandalay. We highly recommend both.
Mr. Zo was the consumate professional. He expertly navigated the congested streets of Mandalay. Despite long days of touring, he always had a ready smile, cold water bottles and wet wipes.
They were both amazing on our last night in Mandalay. A torrential storm hit Mandalay, causing flash flooding and a blackout to a city of 6-7 million people. The collaborative work of Mr. Zo and Ms. Htet Htet to manuever around the deluge of rain, the sea of humanity and traffic in the pitch dark to take us safely to our hotel was beyond impressive.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS:
1) Recommend obtaining Myanmar visas online.
2) One day should be sufficient to tour Yangon. Highlights: 1) Shwedagon Pagoda 2) Scott's Market 3) Chankhtatgy Buddha. Recommend touring city on weekend. Despite the fact that no motorcycles or scooters are allowed in the city, the traffic is significantly heavier on the weekdays.
3) Recommend Sawyer's Maxi-Deet mosquito spray repellant (see Amazon.com). It performs much better than other sprays.
4) Wear flip flops and/or slides, especially in Bagan. Unlike Thailand, Cambodia and Laos, no shoes and/or socks can be worn in Myanmar temples. Thus, slipping on and off flip flops and/or slides is much easier and more efficient than shoes and/or sandals. In Bagan, the vast majority of the tour involves temples.
5) Bring disinfectant wipes. Not all the temples are indoors. You will be walking bare footed in a lot of dusty, outdoor spaces, like the Shwedagon Pagoda.
6) Arrive at the airport an hour early for Domestic flights, especially in Yangon. Domestic airlines do not hesitate to leave 15-20 minutes prior to its designated flight time.
7) For first time fliers on domestic flights in Myanmar, especially at Yangon Airport, it can be chaotic and confusing. In Myanmar, an airline representative will apply a round color coded sticker with their airline logo on each person in the travelling party. The sticker represents your airline company and flight group. There are no individual assigned gates. In Yangon, there is a general waiting area for all domestic flights. As the time draws near, there is a representative who holds up a sign for a particular flight and company. You will need to line up in the proper line to board a transport bus to take you to your plane. BEST ADVICE: Make sure you are standing in line with people with the same color sticker and LOGO. They are most likely the people on the same flight as you.
8) Recommend the following hotels:
Yangon: Sule Shangri-La Hotel
Bagan: Bagan Lodge Hotel
Inle (on the lake): Aureum Inle Resort
Mandalay: Mandalay Hill Resort
Hope the abovementioned information makes it much easier in selecting this great tour company for your next visit to Myanmar.

So, we were planning our honeymoon, we decided on Myanmar. But how on earth do you work out where to go, how to fly, the logistics etc.?
We love planning holidays, we like planning every detail of them. We don't enjoy having to do a set plan, which is what most of the companies that we found offered.
We had some very detailed plans sent to us by travel companies, that would see us run all around Myanmar over an 18 day period. We were happy but when would we get time to ourselves? Did we want to be with other tour groups? It was our honeymoon after all...
So to TripAdvisor we took and One Stop were suggested, so I instantly fired of an email to one stop and got a reply quite quickly.
Kyithar Myint was the name of the lady who replied to us, she gave us a full itinerary for the period we were in the country giving us something every day to do with a beach break at the end.
I explained that we would quite like some time to explore for ourselves and she re worked the plan, over the next few months we tweaked, changed and added stuff to the plan including guided tours on some days, completely free on other days. All airport journeys and transfers planned in. Perfect. It was all organised with ease. Kyithar Myint helping us all the way through the process and answering any questions we had.
Once we got to Yangon we met our guide and driver in the airport and he introduced himself, helped us sort out money and was instantly friendly (something all the people were across the country) his name was Mr. Kyaw Kyaw Soe.
We went straight to the one stop office from the airport and met Kyithar Myint who went through all the paperwork with us, we then paid them. She was as lovely in person as she was via email and it was really nice to see their tiny office that they work from. It felt like a small family run business rather than a multinational western run faceless company. Instantly we warmed to it.
We were taken to our hotel left for a bit to get ready then straight out for a tour, I thought we might be tired due to lack of sleep due to flights but because he was so enthusiastic about his job and his country it made us really enjoy it. At the end of the day he took us to a lovely rooftop restaurant and left us. Letting us know how to get back to the hotel, he organised the time for the driver to pick us up a couple of days later and then left us, My only regret is he asked if we could add him on Facebook, but I cannot find him anywhere! Plus we would never see him again as we only had the guide on the one day!
When we got to Bagan we were met by Zin Lin Htike who instantly apologised about his poor English (It was potentially better than mine) He took us on a tour of Bagan, showing us the pagoda's that were worth seeing that were further out from our hotel, so we could view the ones closer to our hotel when we were on our own. He was a very interested in us just as much as we were him. He asked questions as well as answering questions from us.
He explained in great details about certain pagodas and what their shape meant, this is something that we would use to identify pagoda's later in the trip. It was a history, geography, social and architecture lesson all in one. Perfect. He even rang the hotel to let them know that we were honeymooners and organised a treat for us when we got there. He left us about 6pm, and told us where places were located if we wanted to go for food etc. he then arranged pick up for our return trip to the airport.
We arrived in Mandalay and met Kyaw Htin who instantly took us around the sites in Mandalay, we enjoyed it thoroughly and then checked into the hotel for a little sleep before we got picked up for our boat trip to go to Mingun, we were under the impression we would be on a ferry with other tourists. When we got there and walked across 3 or four other boats, it was apparent we had our own boat! How lovely! So we had a fantastic time in Mandalay and felt like we were given all the help we needed. Again we did all the things further away so that we could enjoy the things within walking distance the next day. Our everlasting memory of Kyaw Htin will always be about how everything we saw in Mandalay was the 'biggest' in the world. It became a fun statement between me and my wife when recounting our stories. The biggest Bell, The biggest Palace, The biggest airport, the biggest Book, The biggest bell, the Biggest Pagoda. It’s a place of big things.
When we arrived In Heho airport, we didn’t' know if we had just got lucky with our guides so far or if they were all going to be really nice people. My wife wasn't feeling very well, and I had been feeling a little sick, so we were not on top form. Our guide here was Khin Mg Htwe and we were going to be with him for 3 days in total the longest of any of our guides.
I am so glad we got to meet Khin mg Htwe, what a fantastically warm man. He is a credit to your company. Full of fun, jokes and always happy. Whatever we wanted he tweaked the day to. We spent the first day in Kalaw and he took us to the Buddha’s inside the mountain, which was stupidly impressive. He then took out for lunch. We had a fantastic authentic meal in a lovely windy (which was very refreshing) restaurant. We then checked into our hotel and slept for a bit then walked without the guide into kalaw. The morning after he and a driver picked us up and took us to the elephant sanctuary. Which was special and words cannot even describe it. After that he took us to Inle Lake by boat, and again a private boat. He was making sure we kept dry by holding umbrellas up for us (I told him it was ok for me, It was lovely getting wet, so he put it down for me) once we got there we checked in and said goodbye.
When we saw him the morning after for our lake trip we told him that we didn't mind if we got back there about 4/5 the next day as the hotel was so nice. He accommodated and gave us a fantastic tour of the Lake. We felt we really got to know him as well as about his family and the places we visited. He helped me barter with market traders, by subtle eye movements when I was paying too much. We joked and laughed and shared a mutual love for Manchester United.
When we left him it was sad as it genuinely felt like we had made a good friend. They were there on time in the morning and helped us get to the airport and checked in. We waved goodbye to him and he would be missed.
We then flew on to Ngapali, the hotel picked us up (arranged by onestop) then when we left ngapali we were picked up in Yangon airport and taken to our hotel with pick up arranged for our lift to the airport the afternoon after ready for our return home.
One stop, you are a fantastic company. This is a long review as I want people to know how much work you do, and how much strain you take off your customers.
All transfers from and to airports were on time. All flights were booked and on time. The guides were flexible and knew when to leave you to have a bit of time (also taking pictures when you wanted them!) the guides again were Lovely people. Friendly and warm and welcoming answering any questions we had.
Special thanks to Kyithar Myint who organised it all and flexed it for us at the last minute when we found extra money for the Balloon over bagan ride! Thank you to all.
I would recommend this company to all who ask, and I will continue to!!
Thank you One Stop!!!!!!!

It felt like a small family run business rather than a multinational western run faceless company. Instantly we warmed to it.
We were taken to our hotel left for a bit to get ready then straight out for a tour, I thought we might be tired due to lack of sleep due to flights but because he was so enthusiastic about his job and his country it made us really enjoy it. At the end of the day he took us to a lovely rooftop restaurant and left us. Letting us know how to get back to the hotel, he organised the time for the driver to pick us up a couple of days later and then left us, My only regret is he asked if we could add him on Facebook, but I cannot find him anywhere! Plus we would never see him again as we only had the guide on the one day!
When we got to Bagan we were met by Zin Lin Htike who instantly apologised about his poor English (It was potentially better than mine) He took us on a tour of Bagan, showing us the pagoda's that were worth seeing that were further out from our hotel, so we could view the ones closer to our hotel when we were on our own. He was a very interested in us just as much as we were him. He asked questions as well as answering questions from us.
He explained in great details about certain pagodas and what their shape meant, this is something that we would use to identify pagoda's later in the trip. It was a history, geography, social and architecture lesson all in one. Perfect. He even rang the hotel to let them know that we were honeymooners and organised a treat for us when we got there. He left us about 6pm, and told us where places were located if we wanted to go for food etc. he then arranged pick up for our return trip to the airport.
We arrived in Mandalay and met Kyaw Htin who instantly took us around the sites in Mandalay, we enjoyed it thoroughly and then checked into the hotel for a little sleep before we got picked up for our boat trip to go to Mingun, we were under the impression we would be on a ferry with other tourists. When we got there and walked across 3 or four other boats, it was apparent we had our own boat! How lovely! So we had a fantastic time in Mandalay and felt like we were given all the help we needed. Again we did all the things further away so that we could enjoy the things within walking distance the next day. Our everlasting memory of Kyaw Htin will always be about how everything we saw in Mandalay was the 'biggest' in the world. It became a fun statement between me and my wife when recounting our stories. The biggest Bell, The biggest Palace, The biggest airport, the biggest Book, The biggest bell, the Biggest Pagoda. It’s a place of big things.
When we arrived In Heho airport, we didn’t' know if we had just got lucky with our guides so far or if they were all going to be really nice people. My wife wasn't feeling very well, and I had been feeling a little sick, so we were not on top form. Our guide here was Khin Mg Htwe and we were going to be with him for 3 days in total the longest of any of our guides.
I am so glad we got to meet Khin mg Htwe, what a fantastically warm man. He is a credit to your company. Full of fun, jokes and always happy. Whatever we wanted he tweaked the day to. We spent the first day in Kalaw and he took us to the Buddha’s inside the mountain, which was stupidly impressive. He then took out for lunch. We had a fantastic authentic meal in a lovely windy (which was very refreshing) restaurant. We then checked into our hotel and slept for a bit then walked without the guide into kalaw. The morning after he and a driver picked us up and took us to the elephant sanctuary. Which was special and words cannot even describe it. After that he took us to Inle Lake by boat, and again a private boat. He was making sure we kept dry by holding umbrellas up for us (I told him it was ok for me, It was lovely getting wet, so he put it down for me) once we got there we checked in and said goodbye.
When we saw him the morning after for our lake trip we told him that we didn't mind if we got back there about 4/5 the next day as the hotel was so nice. He accommodated and gave us a fantastic tour of the Lake. We felt we really got to know him as well as about his family and the places we visited. He helped me barter with market traders, by subtle eye movements when I was paying too much. We joked and laughed and shared a mutual love for Manchester United.
When we left him it was sad as it genuinely felt like we had made a good friend. They were there on time in the morning and helped us get to the airport and checked in. We waved goodbye to him and he would be missed.
We then flew on to Ngapali, the hotel picked us up (arranged by onestop) then when we left ngapali we were picked up in Yangon airport and taken to our hotel with pick up arranged for our lift to the airport the afternoon after ready for our return home.
One stop, you are a fantastic company. This is a long review as I want people to know how much work you do, and how much strain you take off your customers.
All transfers from and to airports were on time. All flights were booked and on time. The guides were flexible and knew when to leave you to have a bit of time (also taking pictures when you wanted them!) the guides again were Lovely people. Friendly and warm and welcoming answering any questions we had.
Special thanks to Kyithar Myint who organised it all and flexed it for us at the last minute when we found extra money for the Balloon over bagan ride! Thank you to all.
I would recommend this company to all who ask, and I will continue to!!
Thank you One Stop!!!!!!!

hi , i am planning a RoadTrip in my SUV from India through Moreh, Mandalay upto Yangoon.
can you please confirm on the list of documents required.
i recently read that Indian travelers doesn't need a special land route permit to enter into the country
just apply for eVisa prior the departure and it needs to be presented at check-post.
can you please confirm it if aforesaid is correct and Carnet (deposit 200% of vehicle cost) is no more required for traveling to Manyanmar
Written September 15, 2018
I cannot really confirm this as I am not from India. I think you should look on an Indian Government site for your answer and then you know if it is correct information. Good luck and enjoy Myanmar. We certainly did.

Hallo, wat wil je weten over deze attractie? In het voorjaar 2018 (februari) reizen we naar Myanmar.
Kunnen we bij dit reisbureau zelf bepalen welke plaatsen we willen aandoen en waar we al dan niet een gids willen. Hoe gebeurde de verplaatsingen.

Gentlemen, we are 2 couples wondering to get a tour arrangement for our Myanmar trip, we arrive on 30 sept at 10:25AM in Yangoon and leave from Mandaly on Sunday 8 October 4PM. We're hoping to take train Yangon to Bagan and then go to inle lake or directly to Mandalay by boat. Some activity like hot air balloon trip, cycling or simply walking are welcomes. If you can send us a recommended itinerary, we would be very grateful. We would welcome your recommendations on hotels but we would like to select our own after review. Our best regards, Renaud

May I know is it dangerous to up the mountain to Golden Rock on 29/6 & down the mountain on 30/6 during the monsoon season?
Written May 31, 2017
No. Not at all.
Many local pilgrimages go to Golden Rock in the rainy season.

Hola me gustarÃa saber si contratasteis el guÃa desde España y si es asÃ, hicisteis una transferencia a un banco en Myanmar?
Written April 21, 2017
Hola!!
No, lo contratamos todo desde Myanmar( porque lo hicimos sobre la marcha, aunque imagino que lo puedes contratar desde España).
Y el pago se hace en Myanmar, en efectivo, a algún representante de la agencia.
Saludos!!!
